Short fat chick to marathon runner (10th anniversary edition.)

When celebrated radio personality and columnist Kerre Woodham found herself 40, overweight and depressed she faced two choices - do nothing and probably not make it to 50 or do something and get her life back.

Fortunately for all of us, and especially those women who like to eat and dress well, she decided to fight back.

Leaving kilos of herself and two bra sizes behind 'somewhere in the Waitakeres' she embarked on a fitness and training regime, with a goal to complete the Auckland marathon.

To the laugh out loud delight and support of her readers and listeners, she battled her way to fitness and achieved her goal - then decided that she didn't want to stop.

This special 10-year anniversary edition of 'Short Fat Chick to Marathon Runner' also includes the devastatingly honest, funny and inspiring follow-up, 'Short Fat Chick in Paris.'
